Paul,

Don's said that it has a longer NDL than air, so you can leave those
who feel the need for a dive computer to continue using their existing
air computers.

As far as O2 tox is concerned - they're already told not to exceed 130'.
If they can't understand that they shouldn't be diving.

There is no need for a trimix computer. Spend the money on gas, not
expensive toys.

John
